A Disturbing Time:


After a hard day a tramp needed to go to sleep. He was very tired, so he went to a park that was near, covered himself in some newspapers and tried to go to sleep.

Only a few minutes had passed, when a man walked up to him, and tapped him on the shoulder. "Excuse me, mate, have you got the time?" The tramped looked up at him, annoyed at being disturbed. But not wanting an argument, looked at his watch and told the man that it was 11.30.
The man said "Thank you." and walked off.
The tramp tried to get to sleep again.

A few minutes later, a man walked up to him, and tapped him on the shoulder. "Excuse me, mate, have you got the time?" said the man. The tramped looked up at him, annoyed at being disturbed again. But not wanting an argument, looked at his watch and told the man that it was 11.35.

The man said "Thanks" and walked off.
The tramp tried to get to sleep again.

A few minutes later, another man walked up to him, and tapped him on the shoulder. "Have you got the time?" asked the man. The tramped looked up at him. This time he was really annoyed, but he didn't want an argument, so he looked at his watch and told
the man that it was 11.40.
The man said "Thank you" and walked away.

The tramp decided that he didn't want to be disturbed again, so he got out a marker pen, and a piece of card, and wrote on it: "I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS." Knowing that he would know not be disturbed, he tried to get to sleep once more.

A few minutes late tha tramp felt a tap on his shoulder.
"WHAT DO YOU WANT!!!" Screamed the tramp.
A man looked down at him a said....

..."Its a quarter-to-twelve!"
